4 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

A charming and characterful cottage situated in the peaceful village of Dolton, just a short walk from local amenities and facilities. Dolton is a close-knit and community-driven village, offering a welcoming and friendly atmosphere.
Old Forge Gallery is an immaculately presented four bedroom, two bathroom part thatched, semi detached property that beautifully blends original character features with modern comforts. Originally serving as the village forge, the current owners believe it to be one of the oldest buildings in Dolton. This is a truly historic gem that has been sympathetically updated over the years to provide both charm and convenience.
Upon entering the cosy yet inviting entrance hall, you are led into a stunning thirty foot sitting and dining room. This bright and spacious area is filled with natural light from the large windows and recently installed double French doors, which open directly into the rear garden. The focal point of the room is the striking stone fireplace housing a newly fitted wood burner, creating a wonderfully warm and homely feel. Additional features include attractive wood block flooring and a characterful spiral staircase leading to the first floor.
Leading off from the sitting room is the kitchen and additional dining area. The dining space features another fireplace, home to a Stanley range that assists in heating the property’s water supply. The original bread oven remains visible, adding to the cottage's unique charm. A quaint sunroom extension adjoins this area, allowing in an abundance of light and providing access to the garden. The kitchen itself has been tastefully modernised with a range of matching wall and base units, integrated appliances and a newly fitted quartz sink. There is also a delightful window seat, a perfect spot to enjoy the garden views.
At the opposite end of the ground floor is a spacious double bedroom with an adjoining shower room, ideal for multigenerational living or use as a guest suite.
Upstairs, the first floor comprises three further double bedrooms. The largest, at the front of the property, benefits from built in wardrobes. One of the bedrooms is currently used as an office but comfortably accommodates a double bed, while the third bedroom at the rear of the property includes a wash basin and enjoys far reaching countryside views. The family bathroom is generously proportioned and features a four piece suite including a corner shower cubicle, a feature roll top bath, WC and hand basin.
Outside, the rear garden is fully enclosed and offers a private and low maintenance space primarily laid to patio, perfect for alfresco dining. A raised lawn area with surrounding flower beds adds colour and interest, while a useful garden shed and oil tank are tucked neatly away. The property also benefits from a carport and off road parking for one vehicle.
In summary, this is a beautifully maintained home full of character, combining historical charm with modern day convenience. A unique opportunity for those seeking village life in a truly special property. From the moment you step inside, this home feels as though it is giving you a warm hug, offering comfort, charm and a genuine sense of belonging.
